(57) The present invention provides a waterproof box which can improve water performance
and work efficiency, and can reduce space. When washing water hits in the lower surface
33h of first waterproof portion 33 of an upper cover 15, spay is generated. At this
time, an outer surface 30b, which is formed in a tapered shape, of first waterproof
portion 30 abuts on an inner surface 33g, which is formed in a tapered shape, of the
first waterproof portion 33. Further, the outer surface 30b engages with the inner
surface 33g. As a result, the inlet of a minute path 27 is closed. Even if water leaks,
force of the water is reduced because the water enters in a groove 33b or 35a. The
water in which force of the water is reduced falls down.
